I've suffered with acne for a really long time, and just general bad skin (blotchyness, scars, red marks, etc) and this is the ONLY thing that seems to consistently work for me. Its kinda a long road to good skin when starting because you either go through super dry skin, or breakouts or both, and it seems it will never go away, but it does. I was using it, then stopped and realized my skin looks best when i'm using it so i started again. I need someone to hit me when i stop using it because nothing works as well. I guess i go through phases where i want to find a simpler routine where i'm don't feel like i NEED a product to have good skin. But my skin is just so sensitive and acne prone that i just NEED this stuff. I don't think it actually heals acne scars, but it makes them look so much less noticeable. And i use cetaphil cream like crazy over this stuff to make my skin less dry, and lansinoh lanolin (for breastfeeding mothers....weird, but it WORKS) for my lips, because they get super dry and painful. If you have bad skin and nothing seems to work, try this! Don't fool yourself with crappy benzoyl peroxide products, they are bad for your skin!

prescribed to me by my dermatologist :] usually my acne scars take monthss to clear up but with this, they are almost gone with in about 2 weeks. it also makes your skin smoother, helps a bit with acne.
skin is very sensitive to this though so just fyi redness after application and drying is normal. also if it seems to get worse when you use this, give it a little more time.
i only dab a little on problem areas and moisturize after, and i only use it at night. btw, dont put it near the nose or eyes because the alcohol will sting your eyes/nose.
Like others on here. I love this stuff. My derm tried to switch me to Tazorac, but my skin rebelled. I find whenever I stop taking this fo whatever reason (ex: waiting for shipment from India) I get breakouts. And whenever I start using it again, my skin calms down. I started out with retin-a micro which is good, but am now taking retin-a since I don't have insurance and have to order it from overseas and only the generic is available. I was using .04 earlier this year from some samples the derm gave me, but started my trusty .10 back again when I ordered my next shipment. The .04 didn't control my acne as well. I didn't have many breakouts, but I would have perhaps 2-4 pimples a month with it whereas .10 allows maybe 1 per month.
I do truly love this. I use the gel, although it does have a sort of alcohol smell and is more drying then the retin a micro cream was. I can live with it. This is totally worth it to control my acne. Whenever I run out of my prescriptions I have a much more complex array of products I use to control my skin, but I still break out. This stuff is pretty awesome, I've been using retin-a instead of the retin-a micro for 2 years now and its still going strong.
Now this stuff is not a micracle product. My pores are still pretty large and I do still have scarring and those lovely pits on my face from picking at acne. They are dimished, but have never gone away.

I have not personally used this product but I work as an esthetician and just want to remind everyone who uses this product (or any Retinol or RetinA product) that you absolutely want to stay away from any facial waxing!! These products essentially thin the skin and also cause some dehydration which can be catastrophic if you attempt to remove any hair by waxing. Skin can be torn so easily during this treatment. Skin tears, sores, scars and scabs can be the result. Please let your esthetician know if you are using Retinols.

Retin-A has a long history of proven anti-aging benefits. Drug store and department store skin care with "retinol" often have a retinol derivative that is much weaker in potency than a prescription. It unclogs pores, stimulates collagen, and reduces fine lines. That said-doing this takes patience. It can be hell-I am on 0.050% and my mild hormonal acne has erupted to serious breakouts, and flaky/dry/irritated skin. Your skin will dry out and literally flake-so you need to manually exfoliate these flakes off with a washcloth or a gentle scrub from time to time. Don't go crazy since you're already exfoliating so much-wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen with a high SPF. And switch your cleanser to something very gentle-my cleanser is hypoallergenic, without fragrance. When I first used this, my blackheads were diminished and my pore size was smaller-then MY SKIN GOT WORSE-DRIED OUT, IRRITATED, RED, AND BIG BREAKOUTS FROM PURGING. Keep at it-your skin will thank you. You will have porcelain, smooth skin with smaller pores, finer texture, and reduced fine lines.

I first started using Retin-A when I was 14. I had really bad acne that would not clear up no matter what I used and my grandmother took me to the dermatologist. The Dr. prescribed me Retin-A along with a few other things that I don't remember.
I started using it daily and I remember clearly how bad the peeling was at first. It was quite miserable and my skin quite literally was falling off ,my skin could be peeled off in huge patches just by pulling at it with tweezers. Of course my brother made terrible fun of me during the whole delima, but after a few months my acne was totally gone.
Now I have been using this over 15 years and I always get compliments on my skin, especially by people that know how old I am. My face has NO wrinkles, it is tight, firm, and glows always. I know I am only 32, but I have way fewer wrinkles than others my own age ( especially considering that I am fair skinned) I used to have freckles, now I forget that I did until I look at old photos.
I think this is hands down the best skin care product you can ever use, however you do need to get past the first few months of using it, they are quite awful, but if you continue....WOW

This acne product is a miracle for me! I have tried everything besides Accutane, and nothing has gotten rid of my cystic acne like Retin A. I've been using it for about 3 months now, and it is just now clearing my skin. It takes a LONG time to see results and as the doctors say, it will make your skin worse before it gets better. Since starting this product I've gone through about 3 phases of "purging" where my already bad acne got to be almost unbearably bad. But I stuck with it and now my skin is glowing,smooth, and almost completely clear! It's even getting rid of my old acne scars (mostly hyperpigmentation). If you have acne that will not go away you really need to give this a try. But make sure you give it time to work, and hang in there through the "intial breakout(s)".

My skin's problem is pore congestions, blackheads, and mild to moderate hormonal acne. This is my second time giving retin-a a shot after my first try failed. The first time was a fail because:
1-I increased the dosage to once a day too early, 2-I did not use sunscreen everyday, and the protection was not high enough (only spf 15), 3-I did not exfoliate enough. After about two months I decided to give this another go. Only this time: I use it strictly every other day, the next day I use a salicylic acid cleanser and a wash cloth to remove the dead skin cells, SPF 55 UVA/UVB protection everyday. This time my face feels much less irritated and less dry. I accelerated the process of purging by using Aztec Secret Indian Healing Clay as a cleansing mask every other day. I only recommend this cleansing mask because it's purely 100% bentonite clay with no other additives, decreasing the irritation from too much ingredients (think of products out there with long ingredients lists). On days when I'm not using retin-a, I try to replenish lost moisture by using an oil-free gel hydrating mask (Aveda's intensive hydrating masque is great). I also use a good hydrating serum every a.m. and p.m. when I don't use retin-a (Dermalogica's skin hydrating booster is awesome). BTW, I think Aveeno's continuous protection sunblock lotion SPF 55 is a great non-greasy sunblock!
I see that some people have decided to give up after only using it for a month or two. Here is the thing, Retin-A is like quitting smoking, you don't give up, hang in there. If the irritation does become bothersome, you are supposed to contact your physician. Then your doctor will see if the dosage needs some changes, or if it really doesn't work with your skin. No matter what you do, just don't go cold turkey without consulting your physician.
UPDATE 10/12: After using it every other night for a month with strong sunscreen, my tolerance is finally good enough for daily application of retin-a. My current routine: AM: Murad Clarifying Cleanser/Washcloth/Naris Hyaluronic Acid Toner/Bioderma Hydrabio Serum/Dermalogica Active Moist/DERMADoctor Ain't Misbehavin' SPF 30. PM: Dermalogica PreCleanse/Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser/Thayer Alcohol and Fragrance Free Witch Hazel Toner with Aloe/Retin-A before bed. I think my cheeks are still purging, but I'm already seeing some results. Blackheads and whiteheads on my nose and forehead have significantly reduced. Usually I need to use the Aztec secret once or twice a week to control the blackheads, but I haven't used clay masks for almost two weeks, and it's still ok.
UPDATE 11/21: I have been using Retin-A every night for a month now. After I upped the dosage from every other night to every night last month, I experienced another round of purging on my face. But those are almost gone now. My skin is just getting better and better, texture has definitely improved. I'm still using most of the products above, only my sunscreen is now Shiseido Extra Smooth Cream SPF 36, no toner at night, and a.m. toner is now Thayer's.
UPDATE 2/25: After finishing my 0.025% retin-a cream, I purchased a 0.05% retin-a cream. It is a generic Stieva cream, much cheaper, and works the same. I seriously don't see myself stopping retin-a anytime soon, I have saved so much money and time because I don't need to shop for fancy skincare products anymore. In fact, I don't even need heavy coverage foundation anymore, LM's tinted moisturizer is enough to make my face look flawless.

i've been using retin A since march or so..it works great but made me break out in heavy cystic acne for 2 months. it was the worst acne i've ever experienced in my entire life. but now my skin is much smoother and clearer and i hardly get pimples. you just have to work through those months becuase retin A clears acne from deep under the skin. so it takes a very long time for it to work completely. it just removed 4 really deep blackheads from my cheek that i've had for months.
also, it requires lots of exfoliation becuase your skin flakes and dries out. or it gets too oily. i dk its a weird thing that happens. but i recommend a scrub daily.
doesn't fade any of my acne marks. i think it might make them worse.

It took away my blackheads/whiteheads and made my breakouts significantly better when I had cystic acne. The downside, and the reason I stopped using it, was that it made mmy red marks more noticeable and they would last for months. It also gave me very sensitive skin. I washed my face with a washcloth and it rubbed my skin off and I had a huge scab, typically my skin is so tough I could use a brillo pad and it would feel fine.

The "Cosmogonic" Form of Genesis 1 (Part 1)

In both form and content, then, Genesis 1 reveals that its basic purposes are religious and theological, not scientific or historical.
By getting rid of the miracle stories in the Bible, Bultmann and his followers hoped to make the Christian story more palatable to modern man. Although I recognize the emotional weight of this sentiment, I am not convinced that it is an intellectually coherent approach, mainly for reasons of self-consistency.
A common challenge to evolutionary theory is that while life does indeed change over time (what is known as microevolution), no one has ever seen one species evolve into another species (macroevolution).
All creation is the doings of God's hands, no matter how he did it. When I look at a painting, I can connect somehow with the painter, and the same goes with the universe and God.
Theology needs science, but science needs theology; there can be no two-state solution.
The words we use to talk about the Bible and science often predispose us towards unnecessary conflicts.
In this video originally featured in March of 2012, Dr. David Finch, a biologist at New York University, discusses his thoughts on both Creationism and the effects of "new atheists" like Richard Dawkins.
Here are some of the best responses from around the web to David's Barash's controversial editorial about God and Evolution in the New York Times.
If discussions of science and religion sometimes get bogged down in Genesis, perhaps that is because they have not made the preparatory journey through the rich material of the Wisdom books.
New BioLogos content editor Brad Kramer reviews Chapter 1 of "Surprised by Scripture" by NT Wright, and sees Wright's work as a signpost for the future of the science/faith debate.
Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.
What we do learn from scripture is that there is only one Creator and that there's a clear distinction between God and the created world. And that we who are created in the image of God are able to investigate a creation that is remarkably tuned for our discovery.
This entry was originally posted on February 13, 2010. While the question of evolutionary predisposition toward religious belief may be challenging, Christians need not see it as threatening. In fact, this is actually a Pauline notion that is explored in Romans 1, where Paul claims that it is in mankind's nature to "know God".
This entry was originally posted on February 17, 2010. In this video conversation, Jeff Schloss makes the observation that when we use the term "evolution", it is not always exactly clear what we are actually discussing unless we denote the intended usage.
I was raised in a household of atheists. My parents were card-carrying members of the American Communist Party, and therefore the atheism in my household was quite close to the militant anti-theism of the so-called "new atheists".
These excerpts from Origins: Christian Perspectives on Creation, Evolution, and Intelligent Design, written by BioLogos president Deborah Haarsma and her husband Loren Haarsma, offer a sampling of the book's many topics, from exploring our disagreements and agreements on origins as Christians to explaining scientific processes to looking at how we read Genesis.
The evidence suggests that God has chosen to work through a random process, one which involves the routine creation and destruction of millions of cells that never get used. This is the ordinary means by which God maintains our health. The miracles of healing recorded in the Bible are miraculous precisely because they don't occur by this normal, natural process.
In this video Conversation, Denis Alexander asserts that contemporary Christians are not taking the early chapters of Genesis seriously enough.

since we all know that were going to go DT in round one who do you think we should get, spears or maybe trade down alittle bit and get the NT from oregon Niagita. Than I could see us going middle lineback in round two. Tell me what you think?
There's nothing set in stone saying we will draft DL. Ngata has had a serious knee injury in the past, plus he is an underclassmen. He will have to declare himself eligible for the draft.
spears would be the top choice in my mind unless we can take antrell rolle...don't think we won't take another corner in round one...there are three really good ones that will be in this years draft and glenn isn't getting any younger...actually he's probably close to that age where corners start thinking retirement...another position to keep in mind is runningback...with our lack of a franchise runner don't sleep on cadillac williams from auburn
no way we go running back in the first round, domanick davis has way to much talent and is only in his second year, marcus spears is where will go
It would not shock me to see us take a RB if the right guy is availible. I like Ronnie Brown as a pro prospect more than Williams though. Long term, I think Dom is a 3rd down back in this league.
I think Casserly will go value if the right guy (character, health) falls to him in the first round. RB is historically a position where prospects will drop during the draft, particularly lately. Up to now, the Texans needed everything, so it appeared they were drafting need. I hope they can get a top ILB, or trade the pick. |
I've seen Ronnie Brown a few times on TV and I've liked him too. (My dad went to Auburn for a year and although he doesn't watch the games much I try to watch them when I can)
He seems to have great size and speed, and isn't afraid to take a hit (usually breaks away from it as well). He just seems like an all around, more complete player than Cadillac does. It would not surprise me at all if Brown went before Cadillac |
To bad Adrian Peterson is just a freshman. The guy is awesome.
Speaking of Auburn and Ronnie Brown, they're on right now against Ole Miss on ESPN
Hey, TexanCanes
Does Spears have a bipolar disorder? I think Marquise Hill was bipolar, but someone told me Spears has it too. Just wondering if they were confusing the two. |
Dont be suprised to see us go with: DT/DL/RB/CB/SS-FS/QB, ok just kidding.
We really cant pick a position to draft from, due to the fact that we dont know where we will end up in the rankings. I think we have the 19th pick with a 4-3 record. So anything can happen. Also it depends on what is taken in front of us. A run on DL men, would push us to take a player like Cadillac, or a run on CB's and RB's would force us to go DL. Also injuries can play into who we choose. But wishful thinking makes me want to go RB. Im not impressed with DD at the moment, and I would like to take a chance on a player of 1st round caliber. 1. Benson. 2.A. Cadillac 2.B. Brown 3. Morency |

Comments about Ergon GP2 Grips:
Absolutely outstanding in every way. They can be rotated to the precise position that gives the most relief on long rides, and they stay where you position them. Held there by the Allen locking bolt. The bar ends double as stand-offs whenever there is a need to place the bike upside down for servicing or adjustments. Thus saving wear and tear on the stem, computer, shifter indicator housing, brake fluid reservoir, or a bell-type device. I am purchasing a second set for my newly built city-commuting bike. I used the Nashbar mountain frame and rigid fork.

Difference between 2001 GMC K2500HD and C2500HD?
I have a 2001 GMC 2500HD 4x4 Extended Cab that I'm getting ready to sell. It's got a 6" Superlift suspension lift. Anyway, I'm going to sell it on Cars.com and maybe Trucktrader.com. I'm unsure whether my truck is a K2500HD or a C2500HD. I've got the original sticker right here with me and can't find it anywhere on there. Does anyone know how I can find out which mine is?
driftracer Posts: 2,692the difference between K and C is 4x4 versus 4x2. You'll note in the fith, sixth, and seventh digits of your VIN, it reads K29 - if it were a 2WD truck, it'd be a C29.

I'm sorry to see the restaurant close. I was shocked to see the paper in the windows the other day. We had just eaten there a few months ago.

I had a petit fillet mignon and 2 sides. We dined outdoors. Our server, Jason, was friendly and attentive.
It sounds like an Italian restaurant and it is. But, the menu variety is surprising. Pasta, steak, fish and other specialties. The catfish was wonderful. Service was a bit slow, but I enjoyed the time to talk with friends. Give it a try.

SimCorp, a leading provider of investment management software and services for the global financial services industry, today announced that UNIQA Insurance Group AG (UNIQA), one of the leading insurance groups in Central Europe with assets under management of more than 26 billion Euros, has gone live with XpressInstruments, the structured products module of SimCorp Dimension.
XpressInstruments will support UNIQA's strategy to reap the potential returns of structured products in a historically low-interest environment, without losing sight of the necessary risk management. With the extension of its SimCorp Dimension solution to include XpressInstruments, the Austrian insurance company now uses SimCorp's cutting-edge system as an integrated solution for the investment management of both more conventional instruments and structured financial products.
UNIQA has used SimCorp Dimension since 2004 as a unified, transnational platform for investment management, international accounting and risk management. Meanwhile XpressInstruments was developed by SimCorp as a module to support complex, non-standardized financial products quickly in the system, without having to take the usual software update cycles into account.
Structured products can now be managed by UNIQA in parallel with conventional financial instruments in an integrated system across the entire value chain from pricing and risk management to settlement. In comparison to stand-alone solutions for managing structured products, as often used in the industry, the operational risk is thereby reduced dramatically. In addition, the ability to monitor the entire range of investments, including structured products, in one system, aids UNIQA's implementation of Solvency II.
"The market for structured products is hugely dynamic," explains Kurt Svoboda, Member of the Board and Chief Risk Officer of UNIQA Insurance Group AG. "For the management of our portfolio of structured products, the new XpressInstruments module helps us to sustainably measure and control capital requirements. Thanks to the flexibility of the software, we feel well prepared for the new challenges to come."Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

" GROWTix provided us with an incredible ticketing & show management platform for Salt Lake Comic Convention. We could not have been as successful without the assistance of the GrowTix team, and we would have had an 'epic fail' rather than the most successful first year Comic Convention in North America. "
" I decided 3 weeks before my event to switch to GrowTix, something nearly unheard of, but I needed QR code check-in capabilities because the volume of pre-sales was too high to run on Google Docs, our prior method. GrowTix came through for me in a huge way. They fully integrated our pre-sales from the other platform, and they sent people and iPads to assist our registration process. In the prior year with half as many tickets sold, we had 2 hour registration lines. With the technology GrowTix provides, we processed twice as many attendees with a maximum wait time of 20 minutes. I enthusiastically recommend GrowTix for managing ticketing and events. "

Nautic in process to buy Crownline Boats
Posted onNautic Global Group, the manufacturer of Rinker Boats and Godfrey Marine brands, entered into a non-binding letter of intent to acquire the assets of Crownline Boats.
"At this time, the actual purchase transaction has not been completed, and Nautic Global Group does not own Crownline," the company said in a statement. "We are working through a due diligence process with the sellers and our investors, which includes dialogue with the company and its dealer network."
Elkhart, Ind.-based NGG is the fourth-largest boatbuilder in the United States.
"We are excited at the prospect of Crownline becoming part of the NGG portfolio of brands," the company stated. "The quality of the dealer network, product and the strength of the brand in the market would create exciting synergies that would position us well as our industry recovers."
Crownline Boats, which shut down production late last year, recently announced it will not resume full production at its West Frankfort, Ill., facility this week, as previously planned.
"Currently active personnel will continue to serve our dealers and customers; however, production will be deferred pending resolution of Crownline's previously announced initiative to secure investment capital," the company said in a statement.
Crownline shut down production in December and had originally planned to reopen in March. In March, the company announced it was pushing back reopening until June.

Clayton News Daily
By Doug Gorman
It didn't take long for the North Clayton Eagles to get over their season opening loss to Riverdale - just one week to be exact. The Eagles defeated Lovejoy 21-16 Friday night in a game that wasn't decided until the last play of the contest. North Clayton took a 21-10 lead with 1:29 remaining in the game when Morgan Burnett scored on a short quarterback keeper. But Lovejoy still had plenty of life left in its offense. Senior quarterback Mario Fannin marched the Wildcats down field and deep into North Clayton territory, and backup quarterback Ryan Williamson finished the drive by connecting with Matt Allen on a 17-yard touchdown pass with 13 seconds remaining. The Wildcats recovered the onside kick and took a couple of attempts at the end zone before time ran out. It was North Clayton's second straight victory against Lovejoy. "This was a great win for us," said North Clayton head coach Don Shockley. "This was all about senior leadership. Our seniors really stepped it up tonight." Running back Dominque Randolph, who rushed for 137 yards, agreed with his coach. "This was a team effort," he said. "We want to make the playoffs, that's our goal." Friday's nights contest was a contrast in halves, as both offenses struggled in the first two quarters. North Clayton scored the only points of the first half when Burnett found the end zone on the first of his two touchdowns with 1:10 remaining until the break. Lovejoy took possession of the football, and moved the ball quickly into the red zone, but time ran out before the Wildcats were able to score. Things changed in the second half, as Lovejoy scored 10 points in the fourth quarter to grab the lead. Octavius Edge helped Lovejoy tie the game at 7-7l with a 14-yard run. With 3:40 remaining Josh Dubois kicked a 25-yard field goal to give the Wildcats a 10-7 lead. Greg Wilson helped answer for North Clayton with the longest touchdown run of the night when he scampered 64 yards with 1:18 remaining in the first third quarter. Although the game featured two of the state's best quarterbacks, both squads did most of their damage on the ground. Dominque Randolph rushed for 137 yards for North Clayton and Octavius Edge had 104 yards. Fannin had 98 yards rushing for Lovejoy. "It's a shame somebody had to lose this football game," said Shockley. "Both teams played their hearts out. Lovejoy has a heck of a football team."More like this story

News : Turner criticises new selection set-up
News : Kim Littlejohn named New Zealand selector Players/Officials:
Martin Crowe
| Glenn Turner
New Zealand
Glenn Turner and Martin Crowe have been recruited by New Zealand Cricket (NZC) as "high-performance talent scouts", to identify potential New Zealand cricketers by watching domestic cricket. The duo will suggest names to national selection manager Kim Littlejohn and coach Mike Hesson.
Turner returns to the payroll of NZC after being removed from his position as the national selector, after six years in the role, by current director of cricket John Buchanan last year. Turner, days after being displaced by Littlejohn, had said he and New Zealand Cricket were "better off without each other".
But now he is happy to be back in the fold. "I've only been a year out of it and the six years prior to that meant that I got around the provincial scene and I've had an opportunity to see more domestic cricket than anybody else," Turner told Fairfax. "It's an opportunity to keep up with that knowledge and increase it again and get right up to date. Obviously cricket is still important to me and there's always the saying that you're better inside the tent than outside it."
The other recruit, Crowe, was diagnosed with a "very treatable" cancer a month ago.
Buchanan said an increase in the budget as the reason behind the new positions: "We're trying to increase the breadth of coverage. It's to do with budgeting, in that we were able to increase our budget in that area. [It's] also for [Littlejohn] to get a good handle on NZC and the sort of people that would be appropriate to fill those scouting roles."

AMS 370 • The Black Freedom Struggle-W

Course Description
Until fairly recently, historians have treated the civil rights movement and black power movement as two discrete movements with competing ideologies and tactics. More recently, revisionist scholars have redefined these movements as two strands of a long tradition of African American resistance, dating back to the forced arrival of enslaved Africans in North America. This course will explore the black freedom struggle from WWII to the present and consider activists and movements that defied the constructed boundaries between civil rights and black power. Rather than focusing on major events and popular figures, this class will focus on grassroots actions and lesser known figures and events. While the civil rights movement is typically considered largely a southern movement and black power largely a northern and western urban movement, we will explore the black freedom struggle as a national movement that is best understood by investigating its expressions at the local level. We will also investigate economic rights campaigns black activists throughout this era. By considering black grassroots activism in its various forms, we will construct a more inclusive national narrative of the black freedom struggle that highlights the effects of local people and local movements on communities throughout the nation.

Wednesday, August 27 09:08:07
The euro came close to cracking on Wednesday as feverish speculation of further policy stimulus in the euro zone drove bond yields to all-time lows and lifted Asian stocks to peaks not seen in almost seven years.
The groundbreaking call by European Central Bank President Mario Draghi for more action on both the monetary and fiscal fronts has markets wagering that fresh steps could come as soon as next week when the central bank's governing council meets.
"The comments have raised expectations that the ECB could announce even more monetary policy stimulus over coming months," said Peter Dragicevich, a senior currency and rates strategist at Commonwealth Bank of Australia. "The next programme could include broad-based asset purchases."
He added that euro zone inflation data due on Friday was likely to show a new low for this cycle of just 0.3 percent and add to the sense of urgency on policy.
"This will continue to depress swap rates across the curve and keep the euro heavy."
The single currency broke down to a new 11-month trough of $1.3154 in Asia, taking it nearer to the Sept. 6 low of $1.3104 which also doubles as major chart support.
The euro's weakness helped lift the U.S. dollar index through its September peak to reach its highest in 13 months at 82.698. The greenback could only manage a minor gain on the yen to 104.07, short of Monday's 7-month peak at 104.49.
The prospect of yet further lashings of liquidity in Europe was taken as a positive for emerging markets and MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan gained 0.4 percent to its highest since January 2008.
After a solid start Japan's Topix turned flat after running into stiff chart resistance in the 1,290/1,300 zone where it has peaked a number of times in the past.
On Wall Street the S&P 500 had ended Tuesday above the 2,000 mark for the first time, adding 0.11 percent. The Dow firmed 0.17 percent and the Nasdaq 0.29 percent.
Investors were cheered by solid data with the Conference Board measure of consumer confidence rising to its highest level since October 2007.
Durable goods orders jumped a massive 22.6 percent thanks entirely to bumper demand for Boeing aircraft, while upward revisions to past data suggested business investment was stronger than first thought.
In Europe, the broad FTSEurofirst 300 index had closed up 0.75 percent.
Yields on 10-year German debt fell a basis point to a record closing low of 0.943 percent, while negative yields on two-year paper meant investors were paying for the pleasure of lending to Berlin.
In commodity markets, gold was hovering at $1,284.04 an ounce after failing to sustain a bounce to $1,290.80.
Oil prices were steadier for the moment after their long decline. Brent crude inched up 26 cents to $102.76 a barrel, while U.S. crude rose 7 cents to $93.93. (Reuters)

routes du bonheur Suggestions for itineraries to discover the world
Restaurant of a Grand Chef Relais & Châteaux in town. France,Paris
Full screen
Unique in the world: No menu, you just wait and see what arrives on your plate
Guillaume Guedj, Maître de Maison, presents the property:
This is a very discreet address tucked away under the arcades in one of the oldest avenues in the centre of Paris. A tiny room with minimalist décor hidden away behind white curtains: what matters here is the food. No menu, you just wait and see what arrives on your plate. Veal tartare and oyster, foie gras poached with strawberry, white asparagus served with jamón serrano and Parmesan foam – the menu presents Grand Chef Shinichi Sato's latest creations elegantly served in the dining room by Guillaume Guedj. There is a very fine wine list mainly featuring Burgundy which is the perfect accompaniment for the delicate, inventive cuisine which plays with colour and texture as much as with flavour, providing the ideal showcase for top-class seasonal ingredients.

Corvette lieutenant
This article does not cite any references or sources. (October 2008) |
Naval officer ranks |
Flag officers: |
Admiral of the fleet • Fleet admiral • Grand admiral |
Senior officers: |
Captain • Capt at sea • Capt of sea and war • Ship-of-the-line Capt |
Junior officers: |
Captain lieutenant • Lieutenant • Ship-of-the-line lieutenant |
Corvette lieutenant is a rank in some navies, especially those of Spain and Latin America, roughly equivalent to a Royal Navy acting sub-lieutenant or a US Navy ensign.
The rank did exist in the French Navy during the Ancien Régime, but has now been replaced with ship of the line ensign (second class) (French: enseigne de vaisseau de deuxième classe).
The NATO rank code is OF-1 (junior)
In the Austro-Hungarian Navy the rank of Korvettenleutnant or tengerészzászlós was the lowest officer rank. Usually only reserve officers were commissioned as Korvettenleutnant. Professional officers would be commissioned as Fregattenleutnant, the next higher rank. Korvettenleutnants would wear the same rank insignia as Seefähnriche.

Problem in ArrayList class(java.util.*)
i have been reading ArrayList class when i was stuck with some concepts....
i read in Herbert Schildt that we cant pass primitive data type in the argument list of "add" method of List interface....but when i tried to pass 1 as the argument there was no errors...this is my code-
Java Code:import java.util.*; public class ArrayListToArray { public static void main(String[] args) { ArrayList a1=new ArrayList(); int sum=0; a1.add(1); a1.add(2); a1.add(3); System.out.println("Contents of a1:"+a1); Object arr[]=a1.toArray(); for(int i=0;i<arr.length;i++){ sum=sum+((Integer)arr[i]).intValue(); } System.out.println(sum); } }
one more thing when i tried this-
it didnt work....it was saying that required:int and found:java.lang.Object...
please explain both.....thanks in advance....Last edited by sunde887; 08-14-2011 at 09:57 AM. Reason: Code tags added, [code]...[/code]

From what I've heard by those much smarter than I, Herbert Schildt books are bad. That being said, the advice is incorrect as given by the author. The list can have ints added to it. Thanks to auto-boxing, it will automatically convert the literal number '1', to an Integer object, which allows 1,2,3,etc to be added to a list. The problem with trying to add them is that your array(arr), contains an array of objects. The '+' operator takes 2 numerals(or strings), and performs the correct operation, but you are attempting to add objects(which causes the error).
You should use generics when using Lists to specify the type that will be inserted and removed in a much simpler fashion.
Java Code:List<Integer> numList = new ArrayList<Integer>();
In your snippet try casting the arr[1] to an Integer
Java Code:sum = sum+(Integer)arr[1];

What happens is this: you use the primitive int value 1 as an argument and it gets converted to an Integer instance with the value 1. It is a reference to this Integer instance that gets added to the list. This is called "boxing".
it didnt work....it was saying that required:int and found:java.lang.Object...
Note that you can also rely on the opposite of the "boxing" process above. That is, the object (Integer)arr[i] will be automatically "unboxed" to provide the int value. Like this
Java Code:sum = sum + (Integer)arr[i];
The place where "boxing" fails is if you add an int , you can't remove it the same way:
anArrayList.add(234); // this will be boxed into an Integer.
anArrayList.remove(234); // this will not be boxed, it will look for element 234
So boxing is tricky and requires the programmer to know when it is happening and when not.

Of all the charities I support, I believe that my contributions are most effective at Grist. I could benefit from grist.org whether or not I was a contributor, but I feel that Grist benefits from grass-roots supporters like me, who are the site's primary audience. I am part of the Grist community as a reader, and sense that I am like immediate family as a result of my contribution

I bought a small cut-up chicken from Larry and it was wonderful. It was just the right size for my husband and me (2+ lbs) and I was happy that it was NOT bloody like some other local chicken that I have bought before.

Derrick Rose: More than powerful
February, 29, 2012
Howard Smith/US Presswire
These moments dazzle, but are only part of the story.
The story of Derrick Rose is one of ferocity. He powers his way to the hoop, and once there, jumps over people and dunks.
In one recent ad campaign, he was portrayed as a bull. Not a Chicago Bull, but an actual bull, weaving his way through the bullfighting ring.
Spellbinding. Thrilling. Powerful beyond belief. And all true: He really is that strong, that fast, that kind of overwhelming force.
But the power he can generate with his quads is, to me, only a tiny part of what makes Rose one of the most admirable players in the NBA.
The rest of the story is one of the best in sports, and by comparison, a total secret.
The story is that he's all about his teammates, his coach and winning. He really is a superstar, and he really has just about zero ego. That's no bull, that's a unicorn. As in one-of-a-kind, if it exists at all.
Going into Sunday's All-Star game Rose laughed at the idea that he might be the MVP of the game, saying there was "no way."
Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, Kobe Bryant, LeBron James ... they taught us a lot about how MVPs talk. But they didn't teach us anything about this. Self-deprecation? Isn't that just for losers?
Apparently not, 'cause Rose keeps winning. Meanwhile, a lot of those kinds of Rose comments simply get ignored, because they simply don't fit the script.
Meanwhile, Rose's teammates love him, fight through walls (and picks) for him, and win in part out of wanting good things for him. The value of those relationships is off the charts.
I'm looking forward to an ad campaign that features smiling teammates and ideas like what's in this quote, from Tom Thibodeau: "The beauty of his game is he studies what the team needs. If he feels like the team needs someone to distribute more, then that's what he'll do. If he feels like the team needs more scoring then that's what he'll do. ... You get to see him every day, you know how special he is."
The truth is, there are a lot of players who can run fast, jump high and dunk hard. But there are not a lot who can star on one of the most cohesive teams in NBA history, and those skills matter too, maybe more than anything.
